Abstract: A transmission mechanism with a pair of selectively engageable clutch systems is disclosed that has an upstream gear ratio and a downstream gear ratio that combine to provide an effective gear ratio. A different clutch drive member (42,44) is associated with an input side of each of the pair of clutch systems. The clutch drive members are driven for rotation by an engine input member (26). The upstream gear ratio is determined by the gear ratio between the engine input member and one of the clutch drive members. Output sides of each of the clutch systems drive an associated one of a pair of non-coaxial layshafts (20,22). Pinions are located on and selectively driven by the layshafts. A countershaft (50) is spaced from both of the layshafts, and has a plurality of gears. Each of the gears is driven for rotation by one of the pinions of the layshafts. The downstream gear ratio is determined by the gear ratio between the selected pinion and the intermeshed gear.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an IC card (2) includes a communication unit (25), data memory (22), selector (21), and inheriting unit (21). The communication unit performs data communication with an external apparatus. The data memory stores files managed by a hierarchical structure, a folder as an upper layer of the files, and information concerning the inheritance of a security status between a plurality of folders. If the communication unit receives a command requesting the selection of a second folder while a first folder is selected, the selector sets the first folder in an unselected state, and sets the second folder designated by the command in a selected state. If information indicating the inheritance of a security status from the first folder to the second folder exists, the inheriting unit inherits, even while the second file is selected, the security status established while the first folder is selected.
